Typed Document Signed. One page, 8” x 10 7/8”. 17” x 20 1/2” matted and framed. Massachusetts. September 21, 1899. The document reads, in part: “The accompanying Spanish gold coin, 25 pesetas, the impressions of which are hereon made, is a relic of the American-Spanish was and was presented to Ralph S. Bartlett by Lieut. Walter Ball, United States Navy, at a dinner aboard the United States gunboat “Marietta”, September 19, 1899. This coin was found by Lieut. Ball on July 5, 1898, amid the ruins, near an officer’s stateroom, of the destroyed Spanish armoured [sic] cruiser “El Almirante Oquendo”, one of the ships of Admiral Cervera’s fleet, near the harbor of Santiago, Cuba, Lieut. Ball being at the time an officer upon Admiral Samson’s flagship “New York”. In witness of the foregoing statement, the said Walter Bell hereto affixes his signature this twenty-first day of September, A.D. 1899 Walter Ball …” Below Ball’s signature a Notary Public has attested that Ball has sworn on oath that his statement is true. Gold notary’s seal at lower left. The above noted coin is affixed to the lower right corner of document and the top of document bears a faint impression of both sides of the coin. Very Fine. This document is accompanied by four photographic images mounted to a single sheet. Each photograph measures 4 3/4” x 3 5/8”. The images are identified as “Isles of Shoals 1897,” “Maplewood Avenue Bridge and Boat House 1897,” “Coburn Hoyt 1897” and “Steamship ‘New York’ Portsmouth Harbor NH 1897”. Fine. Also accompanied by the book Our Nation in War, which documents the Spanish American War, including the destruction of the “El Almirante Oquendo” and other vessels in Cervera’s fleet. Very Good.
